charging copies to different funds
by Kohn, Karen 17 Feb '09

17 Feb '09

Hello, Is there a way to create an order for two copies of a book and charge each copy to a different fund? It looks to me like I'd need to create two separate orders to do this. Thanks.

Good Morning All What benefits would using LDAP give me if used in Koha? Just wondering if it will help with patron import in the future. Thanks Ed -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/LDAP-tp22040278p22040278.html Sent from the Koha - Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Duplicate check on title field
by Feminist Library 15 Feb '09

15 Feb '09

Hi, Is there anyway of removing or de-selecting the duplicate checking that occurs when cataloguing (the *Duplicate Record suspected *notification*)?** *At the moment, when you choose to override, you are just taken back to the first MARC entry screen, and no record is created for the item. We'd prefer to check manually, but I can't see this option anywhere. Kind Regards, Kate

Dear Friends, I tried Koha 3.00.01.005 beta. I would like to attract developers attention to a useability problem. I created a patron successfully. The "Modify Professional patron" screen seems blank when trying to edit an existing parton information. I hope that this problem will sove soon. Thanks in advance, -- Vimal Kumar V. Asst.

OPAC search results -No
by Petrus B. van Bork 14 Feb '09

14 Feb '09

Dear List-Colleagues: There was no follow up reply to the post "OPAC search results -No" (from December '08) so I am posting our results from dealing with this issue: Note: Sunita was running Fedora and we are running Redhat which is similar. * no filters load/no records written in rebuild_zebra * OS:Redhat or Fedora (possibly CentOS) -- * zebraidx (5810) [warn] No such record type: grs.marcxml.record * ERR109 in zebrasrv Possibly specific to: Redhat, Fedora and possibly CentOS Symptoms: ERR109 when querying running copy of zebrasrv Text Box: The structure attribute specifies the type of search term. This causes the search to be mapped on different Zebra internal indexes, which must have been defined at index time. Source: Zebra -- Users Guide and Reference at: http://www.indexdata.dk/zebra/doc/querymodel-rpn.tkl#querymodel-bib1-struct… 109 is a structure attribute for numeric string in Zebra (...it tells Zebra what format to use when indexing Koha data) While there are a number of causes for this error (including a bad ZOOM compile) we are assuming a good install of all perl modules and components. If you are running Fedora or Redhat (...and likely CentOS) and if your "rebuild_Zebra.pl" script will run and you /have /run it and its output looks similar too: Zebra configuration information ================================ Zebra biblio directory = /var/lib/koha/zebradb/biblios Zebra authorities directory = /var/lib/koha/zebradb/authorities Koha directory = /usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin BIBLIONUMBER in : 999$c BIBLIOITEMNUMBER in : 999$d ================================ skipping authorities ==================== exporting biblio ==================== 1.

The clues are twofold: 1) ...note that there are no filter module's loaded, they should look like: /14:222:51-14/02 zebraidx (4531) [log] Loaded filter module /usr/local/lib/idzebra02.0/modules/mod-grs-xml.so/ 2) these two lines in your rebuild_zebra output: /16:57:45-15/12 zebraidx(11219) [log] dir /tmp/krk6rYaZGR/biblio/ /16:57:45-15/12 zebraidx(11219) [warn] No such record type:/ /grs.marcxml.record/ NO filter modules are loading and -- of course -- as a result, zebra_build can not read grs.marcxml.record processed data. Result: no index and no ability to search OPAC etc. Filters should appear right under: REINDEXING zebra =============== ....they should look like... /14:222:51-14/02 zebraidx (4531) [log] Loaded filter module /usr/local/lib/idzebra02.0/modules/mod-grs-xml.so/ ...and so forth for another six filters.... Solution: Go to your zebra-biblios.cfg file (probably at: //etc/koha/zebradb// Look in this file for the lines: /# modulePath -- where to look for loadable zebra modules/ /Modules/ /modulePath: /usr/lib/idzebra-2.0/modules/ / / ...the default path is incorrect in RHEL5/Fedora etc. (at least in some installs) ...it should read: /usr/local/lib/idzebra-2.0/modules (or whatever is right on your system) /Newbie tip: verify this, for yourself, by typing "locate mod-alvis.so" at a prompt/ /Example: #locate mod-alvis.so/ /...the result will show the directory path to mod-alvis which is one of the filters you are not loading into rebuild_zebra.pl/ Fix the path in .cfg file, run rebuild_zebra.pl and then restart zebrasrv and your OPAC should run! I really hope this helps some one we had a lot of problems pinning the issue down. Best, Petrus Saugeen Library Consortium

Authority control/ files
by Cab Vinton 14 Feb '09

14 Feb '09

I'm wondering how many libraries are using authority control in Koha 3.0 and how smoothly the process is running. If you're using AC, how is it working for you? Would you recommend, not recommend? Many thanks, Cab Vinton, Director Sanbornton Public Library Sanbornton, NH
